Take Charge of Your Health Today

 

In the US, about 98 million people (1 in 3 people) have Prediabetes. Most of them do not know it. Prediabetes increases the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

At Emerald Health Direct Primary Care, our Cardiometabolic Health Evaluations help you identify hidden risks for heart disease, diabetes, and inflammation—all in a single, comprehensive visit. For $600, you’ll receive expert care, advanced lab testing, and a detailed body composition scan to uncover potential health risks and create a personalized plan for prevention. 

 

Who should consider having a Cardiometabolic Risk Evaluation?

The evaluation is ideal for individuals with a family history of heart disease or diabetes, people who have overweight or obesity, those with high blood pressure or cholesterol or prediabetes, or anyone concerned about their future health. Risk evaluations are not ideal for patients who have known diabetes or heart disease. 

 

What’s Included?

Your one-time evaluation includes:

  • Extended Cholesterol Testing: Advanced labs to give a deeper understanding of your personal and genetic heart health risks.
  • Diabetes Risk Assessment: Blood sugar, HbA1c, and Insulin resistance testing to detect early signs of diabetes.
  • Inflammation Markers: Evaluate GlycA and other levels to measure chronic inflammation.
  • Body Composition Scan: An in-depth look at your body fat, muscle mass, and overall health. 

 

Why Choose Emerald Health?

Our evaluations are led by experienced, board-certified physicians:

  • Dr. Kelly: Double board-certified in Internal Medicine and Obesity Medicine, with expertise in prevention and whole-person care.
  • Dr. Gonzalez: Board-certified in Family Medicine, with additional qualifications in Geriatric Medicine, offering specialized care for older adults.

This isn’t a long-term commitment—just a single visit to uncover your risks and create a plan tailored to your needs. From there you can develop the plan further with your primary care provider, and move forward with the knowledge of what you can change. 

 

Why It Matters

Investing in your health now can help you stay well and avoid serious problems later.  Your future self will thank you!
